1 Antigone Character Political Views: Differences and Similarities Amy Zamora
2 Battle of Eteocles and Polynices When Oedipus realizes he fathered his children with his mother, he curses his sons. Once Oedipus banishes himself, his two sons vow to rule together by taking turns. After the first year, brother Eteocles rules and then refuses to give up his power and will not share with Polynices. To gain the throne, Polynices needs to gather an army to fight off his brother. Polynices gathers an army from Argos because the Theban army was loyal to his brother. His Argive army attempts to enter the gates to Thebes and fails. In combat, Eteocles and Polynices kill each other with swords. Eteocles is given a proper burial. Polynices, however, is not.
3 Creon The battle positions of each of the son s determined Creon s political view. Polynices action where he gathered an army from Argos to fight Eteocles Theban army caused him to believe Polynices was a traitor. This opinion created his decision to give Eteocles a proper burial (he worked for Thebes) and to prevent Polynices from having a proper burial (went against Thebes). Polynices, who broke his exile to come back with fire and sword against his native city... whose idea it was to spill the blood of his blood... is to have no burial. (Sophocles. pg 193) His political view of Polynices clashed with Antigone s. Antigone believed Polynices deserved a proper burial because of her promise to her father and the fact that it was her Theban born right while Creon believed Polynices did not deserve one due to his use of the Argive army to fight Eteocles and the Theban army.
4 Antigone The fact that she her family was doomed created her political opinon as well as her place in societyl Polynices was her Theban born brother, therefore Antigone believed that as his sister she should give him a proper Theban burial. She also made a promise to her father to bury all her brother s properly. If they were not, their souls would be lost since they were a doomed family. Antigone wanted to keep her promise and follow the tradition where women buried their family. Her view clashed with that of Creon. Creon believed the exact opposite and said Polynices was a traitor for using the Argive army to fight his own city. Antigone felt Creon was not only being unfair, but he was taking away her right to bury her family and keep her promise.
5 Ismene She believed that as a woman she had to follow the rules and laws laid down by ruler Creon. Although it went against her right of passage as a Theban woman, Ismene felt that as a woman she could not stand out against Creon and decided not to give Polynices a proper burial. Ismene obeyed the law to stay in her social place. They mean a great deal to me; but I have no strength to break laws that were made for the public good. (Sophocles. pg188) Her political view opposed Antigone s. She believed she should stay in her place rather than bury Polynices, following Creon s rules. Antigone, however thought that as Polynices sister she should bury him properly and keep the promise she had made to her father. Antigone, angered by her sister s decision, went through with the burial anyway; thus tearing apart the sisters.
6 Polynices His political view was formed by the betrayal of his brother Eteocles. Rather than passing along the power to him, Eteocles kept the job as the ruler of Thebes. He, in turn had broken the promise he made to Polynices where they would take turns ruling. Polynices used the Argive army to fight Eteocles and the Theban army because he believed he should have had a turn as ruler. His opinion clashed with his brother s because Polynices truly believed he should have his turn as he was promised. Eteocles, on the other hand, believed he was better suited to rule than his brother. This resulted in his decision to keep the position, rather than pass it on. Their differences in political views were what caused them to fight and in the end kill each other.
7 Eteocles His political view was formed by his experiences while he ruled over Thebes. He believed after ruling for one year he was better suited to rule Thebes than his brother. Due to this, he went back on his promise to take turns ruling with Polynices. His view clashes with Polynices view because he believed that Polynices was not suited to rule. Polynices oppositely thought that because his brother promised to take turns, he justly deserved to take the throne. This difference in views caused problems between the brothers and lead to both of their demises.
8 The Hoang Family Modern Example They are the last family who escaped from Saigon during the Vietnam War only to be torn apart by political differences later on. The father and brother of the family both tore the family apart with their opposing views of the war; one was a Communist while the other was a pacifist. Both family members had opposing views on their decisions to leave their country; one claimed it was betrayal while the other claimed it was for the best. (Related to the opposite views on the brothers burials in Antigone.) The discovery of a step-sister left in Vietnam snapped them out of their dispute and brought them together. Doan, the sister, brought them all together back in Vietnam to resolve their problems. (Kind of like how the death of Eurydice and Haimon snapped Creon out of his tough ruling ways.)
